This is the way. And same here. I don’t use the mask of pseudo-anonymity to be a jackass. Anyone I know who discovers my online accounts will find I interact online and IRL exactly the same way.
One can use ‘pseudo-anonimity’ without being a jackass, we all better not forget that.
I mean, the issue with someone being a jackass is not their willingness to (try to) be anonymous, it’s them being a jackass.
Us forgetting that is akin to us allowing those people telling us that we should all let go of any notion of privacy and freedom of speech because ‘think of the children’. Freedom and privacy is the wrong issue, and their suppression is an even wronger solution to what’s the real problem.
Disclaimer: I use a pseudonym (the same one everywhere, even on my personal website), if you want to find any ‘jackass’ content be my guest.
